The ceremony can take place in one of three stunning locations: the serene Oak Grove, the elegant central garden, or a charming covered courtyard. Afterward, guests can enjoy drinks on the West Terrace, where they’ll be treated to magnificent views of Bordeaux and the river. The “Charles X” reception room, with its historic stone walls, wooden beams, and crystal chandeliers, creates a warm and refined atmosphere for dinner, while the Orangerie offers a bright and intimate space for smaller gatherings.

Big cities such as Paris have a metro but most locations have cheap and accessible public transport, such as trains and buses. Taxis are easy to find or call – available taxis are often indicated by a blue or white light.

Public Holidays

The French treat Christmas, Easter and New Year as serious holidays, as well as VE Day (8th May), Bastille Day (14th July), Armistice Day (11th November) and various saints days (e.g. All Saints' Day on 1st November).

Good Time to Go

Late May - Early October

good to know

If you're flexible with your Wedding date, late Spring (April/May) & early Autumn (Oct), just outside of High Season can be slightly cheaper when booking a venue. You will find late June & September dates book up quickly - these are the preferred months to celebrate a wedding in France.

What Couples Say

“I honestly don’t know where to start when sharing the most incredible experience of getting married at Chateau Gassies this past October. It was the best weekend of my life and it wouldn’t have been the same without all the incredible staff and vendors we worked with. From the moment we began communicating with Stevie before we even committed to getting married at the Chateau, we could tell the team would be taking exceptional care of us and our guests. My husband and I were able to squeeze in a quick visit to the Chateau in February to meet the staff and a few other vendors and it was such a great trip to continue working through logistics and getting to see the beautiful grounds before the wedding weekend. The suites and guesthouses are all pristine and beautifully decorated, along with the rest of the stunning property. All of our guests were blown away by our wedding events and many shared with us that this was the best wedding they have ever attended. We wouldn’t have this feedback without the top notch support and professionalism from the Chateau team. I also credit the Chateau with their extremely helpful list of preferred partners, which I was able to leverage for a majority of the vendors we hired. It provided peace of mind selecting preferred partners for our special weekend knowing they are trusted by the Chateau. The location of the Chateau was also so convenient being close to the city center, train station and airport. We cannot wait to come back and visit in the future, hopefully for an anniversary trip! We will forever remember the memories and happiness from this weekend and we couldn’t have dreamed up a better venue for our destination wedding!

“Having my wedding here at Chateau Gassies was the best weekend of my life. Nobody tells you about the comedown you experience after such a high, I will never have a weekend that will top my time at Chateau Gassies. The guests that came also mentioned how it was the best wedding they have ever been to. It was magical for so many reasons. Not only is the location supremely beautiful, the facilities are perfect for a magical weekend away with all your loved ones. Months on, I reminisce about it daily and would love to come back for anniversaries! My wedding day exceeded all my expectations. Take me back please!!:”
